Garmin Holster DOES fit newer eTrex Cx models
By Crocuta
I have applied this holster for my Garmin Vista C for over two years now and this is an magnificent solution, in particular for hiking. The unit fits snugly into the case and the flap protects it from hurt on the trail. Yet when you need to look at the unit, it's quick and easy to pull out with one hand. It's likewise a comfortable way to carry the unit in a backpack, car glovebox, etc. The case has solid sides so the unit is well-protected, even if it gets knocked in regards to a bit. You don't have to worry when it comes to it getting dinged up while in this holster.
I have no idea what the former reviewer is talking in saying this case doesn't fit Cx models because this holster perfectly DOES fit the eTrex Vista HCx. I not long back ordered the Vista HCx and, because I was so happy with this case with my older Vista C, I ordered another one. Later, I saw that review and was rather worried with regards to it. But it had shipped so there was not one thing to be done but to wait for it and see what happened.
I received the HCx and holster from Amazon today and the Vista HCx slid into the holster precisely like my older Vista C did. Sure the fit is tight. It's supposed to be. And yes, you have to give it a good tug to get it out, but that's just because the sides and back of the Vista are made of rubber so it grabs onto the material of the holster. Folks, that's a good thing (unless you like the idea of looking at your pricey GPSr falling out and bouncing over the side of a cliff)!
I may likewise tell you from my experience with the older one that the holster and eTrex adjust to each other and they go from tight to nicely snug very quickly. Yet the case never lets the GPSr actually get loose so you never have to worry with regards to the eTrex slipping out.
Anyway, take it from an individual who has employed it for a couple of years now. There is no better way to carry your eTrex (new or old) than this. Now if Garmin would just make one of these for my GPSMAP 60CSx, I'd be all set.

fits HCx great
By Michal Kucera
I agree with Crocuta. This holster fits my brand-new Vista HCx snuggly and perfectly. It may be overpriced, but it will hold your Garmin far more comfortably and securely than a good deal of generic camera case. The only issue I've come all around is that I may not put it in the holster when I have the dash mount clip on it, but if I take the clip off the GPS, it fits great.

A bit tight.
By Charles E. Ramsey
Fits the Garmin Etrex Vista HCx very tightly. Almost too tight, but it does it's job.
